SAN BERNARDIN0 >> The California Supreme Court is set to release its opinion on San Bernardino County’s Colonies corruption case at 10 a.m. on Monday, according to the court’s website.

The issue in question: Can an individual accused of giving or offering a bribe also be charged with aiding and abetting the receipt of a bribe?

The high court’s decision will have a major impact on the trajectory of the sweeping county corruption scandal involving the county’s $102 million legal settlement with Rancho Cucamonga developer Jeff Burum’s investor group, Colonies Partners LP, in November 2006.

State and local prosecutors allege the landmark legal settlement was tainted by bribery, extortion and blackmail.

Burum and three former San Bernardino County officials — former county Supervisor Paul Biane, former Assistant Assessor and union president Jim Erwin, and Mark Kirk, former chief of staff for county Supervisor Gary Ovitt, were indicted in May 2011 and charged with multiple felonies including bribery, criminal conspiracy and tax evasion, among other crimes.

But a San Bernardino Superior Court judge dismissed five of the seven felony charges against Burum, including all four bribery counts, three months after the indictment. Judge Brian McCarville also dismissed one felony count of misappropriation of public funds for each of the other three defendants.

McCarville initially ruled that a person accused of giving bribes, as Burum was in the overt acts listed in the indictment, could not also be charged with aiding and abetting the receipt of bribes, for which Burum was charged,

I can’t even imagine how board those judges must have been sifting through all that crap.

Actually, I think they were more worried about how they were going to screw the DA and the Attorney General on their bogus case? No wonder they are releasing it two days before Christmas….Must be a big FU to Kamala Harris and Mikey (never met a chick small, large, or old I wouldn’t screw) Ramos!

Red,

You amuse me!

Still, you are correct, “no tic tic boom will ever happen to Mike Ramos or any other law enforcement official” because as you’ve noticed, the likes of them fellows are not having public “bombs” dropped on them, and there is no “loud” boom. Most have quietly self destructed with only a passing article, leaving a blur of them in our minds.

Same with Ramos, no loud bomb will be dropped, but we will have the pleasure, I hope, of watching him PUBLICLY unravel and screech:

“I’m melting! Melting! Oh, what a world, what a world!”

AntiCorruptionUnit:

If the misconduct you are referring to includes the failure of the prosecution to provide exculpatory evidence to the Grand Jury, I don’t believe the “I didn’t know” excuse will work for Mike Ramos.

There was a recent ruling (involving the City of Irwindale, I believe) where that defense was asserted, and the court held that prosecutors who claimed to not have known SHOULD HAVE known.

Mike Ramos has had nearly four years to bask in the glory and slanted media coverage of “the most appalling corruption case in decades, certainly in the history of San Bernardino County and maybe California itself,” and on Monday he is going to have to actually start proving his case.

I look forward to that, as well as his finally having to disclose how much money the prosecution has cost.

Red and Repairman,

One last thing, how else would Mr. Stephen Larson be able to “GO THE DISTANCE” if this is cut short?

In addition, a sudden stop leaves too many spectators at the end of the finish line cheated and left out of witnessing this once in a life time event!

Let’s gather together and cheer Larson on, singing his song…someone turn the music up LOUD!!!!!!!

The Distance – by Cake

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line, engines pumping and thumping in time. The green light flashes, the flags go up. Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.

They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank, Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.

Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.

Their prowess is potent and secretly stern.

As they speed through the finish, the flags go down.

The fans get up and they get out of town.

=== The arena is empty except for ONE MAN,

Still driving and striving as fast as he can.

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,

And long ago somebody left with the cup.

But he’s driving and striving and hugging the turns…

No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,

=== He’s haunted by something he cannot define.

Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,

Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force…

Cause he’s going the distance………….

#40 RED, “Also, for those of you that want to make light of this decision just remember what happened to Rex”

Reiss, 51, was disbarred for taking clients’ money by false pretenses, lying to the court and his clients about the status of cases, forging a client’s signature on a settlement agreement, retaining unearned fees, failing to render proper accounting, writing checks against insufficient funds, making client loans without proper written consent, and failing to cooperate with a State Bar investigation.

In aggravation, Reiss’s misconduct involved multiple acts of wrongdoing involving six clients, including a ten-year pattern of deception to cover up the mismanagement of their cases. He also significantly harmed several clients. In addition, Reiss displayed a lack of insight and remorse, making him an ongoing danger to the public. In mitigation, Reiss had no record of prior discipline since being admitted to the State Bar in 1987. The order took effect March 16, 2013

That is why I made the political statement you alluded to in your comment, not that I feel it is right, but that’s just the way it is going to be and You all must admit, the people here on this blog have not had much luck calling races lately.

#78 Red Anon,

1. I am not wrong, I absolutely do not have a horse in this race. I don’t live in this county. My only contact with this county now is to drive through it on my way to Vegas. The county I live in is no better, it’s power players play SBC power players like a fiddle. I am here because my family and I were screwed over by political players in this county, and I stay around to see if Karma will have it’s day at some point. Plus, I like to add to the dialogue from my own experiences if I see some relevance in the topic.

2. I am not a member of the Tea Party. I used to declare myself a member of a political party. Which one is irrelevant since they lost me. During my situation I worked with both sides of the political fence. Because of my experience I now believe they play the public’s party loyalties all the way to the bank. They get elected and then they all watch each others backs and close ranks against public scrutiny. That is until someone needs a certain outcome, and someone with power needs to feed someone else to the sharks. Everyone, regardless of party, goes along so they aren’t fed to the sharks at a later date. Politics is a big dirty cesspool, so if you choose to swim in it and then get fed, you should have known where you were swimming. Both sides do it.

3. I have been watching this as an outsider, but have dealt with some of the players(again, from BOTH PARTIES). I smell a big fat rat. You state that “ground breaking precedent will be established and a whole culture or aspect of corruption that has existed for decades up and down the state is going to be done away with”. I don’t agree. Someone fed someone to the sharks, someone got a hug from Kamala, and at the end of the day it will be business as usual.

McMahon was after all recommended by Rod Hoops and Cusimano defended Hoops’ behavior to Joe Nelson of the Sun, so one can’t assume that kind of behavior left when Hoops did. James Mills still hasn’t addressed this one, I don’t suppose he ever will. As always, I will always be grateful for your help in that.

It really does a disservice to associate yourself with him. And I know you feel wronged by the tragic accident and the way management dealt with the situation, but to correlate that to widespread corruption is a lengthy stretch. It was a tragic accident by all involved. No crime, no intent. Don’t make yourself snug with a liar and discraced former deputy.

1) It was not a “tragic accident”. It was a completely avoidable collision and the driver was found at fault and charges of Misd. Vehicular Manslaughter were recommended. There is reason to believe the “lunch” was a factor that prevented the DA from charging her those recommended charges.

2) The way “management” chose to deal with the situation was to take the woman being investigated out to lunch during the investigation and give her details of the investigation that she then used to answer questions about her behavior that day. Information they obtained by asking the investigating agency. How as a member of law enforcement can you defend that behavior?? According the an Irvine Councilman, the IPD will now not share information with other agencies again. One bad apple ruined that for others was the gist of her statement to me.

3) The Sheriff took her to lunch. So did a Deputy Chief. Another Deputy Chief excused the behavior to the press. Multiple people went to visit her during the investigation and a Sergeant called the IPD to gain investigation information. Tell me, is this really normal behavior? “No crime, no intent”, now you are the disgrace to the badge if you can write those words. I dealt with multiple agencies regarding this, so I feel very comfortable calling it widespread corruption.

4) Did you know my husband? If not, keep your opinions to yourself. If you did know him you would know he was an honest man who would be appalled that he and his family were treated the way they were by a department he worked hard for. Tell me Joe, if you had been killed in a preventable collision, would you have expected the Sheriff to take the woman to lunch or would you have expected your family to be a bigger concern to them? The fact is the woman that was found at fault for the death of one of their own was given more consideration than the family of their fallen deputy. That smells and big. Something there was corrupt. Read Hoops’ deposition and comment now Joe, you wouldn’t before, remember, you couldn’t do that before because I am a widow. Clearly you have gotten over that.

5) The fact is, without Sharon and ACU your department would still believe Duane’s death was a tragic accident and nobody would know about that despicable lunch. I don’t care about your opinion and my husband would not either. I knew my husband better than anyone, and he would find your defense of such behavior disgusting. LOP, weak sister, leg hanger… He had his words for people like you.

In Comment #103, you claim that “every development that has sprung up in the southland the last 15 years has at least some measure of corruption.” On a blog where I have read many over the top comments over the years, you are hereby awarded the first place prize for the most outrageous.

If your comment is accurate, in San Bernardino County alone there were easily 1,000 corrupt developers. That would make Mike Ramos prosecution of Neil Derry for allegedly laundering a single fully reported $5,000 campaign contribution even more selective, and a bigger waste of time and money.

Regarding your claim that there are “more corrupt developers than DA s,” how many developers are there vs. District Attorneys? Your statement is accurate if there are 2 corrupt developers in any given county. You should be a ghost writer for Joe Nelson.

To say that this was not worth the wait is superfluous, and, given your elaborate comments bashing Neil Derry, I certainly expected more.

Anyway, I agreed to post my report card on James Ramos first year in office once you posted yours, so here it is:

1) Taking visible actions that show that he cares about the citizens of his district: D

2) Being accessible to his grass roots constituents: F

3) Visiting outlying regions of his district: F

4) Living up to his campaign promises: D minus

5) Creating jobs for associates, such as an “administrative analyst” position with an annual salary of $115,518, or a “communications assistant” position with an annual salary of $77,691: A plus.

6) Using his position as a County Supervisor to leverage positive steps for his Indian Tribe and Casino: B plus.

7) Using his position as a County Supervisor to interface with other politicians and explore higher political offices: B plus

8) Attendance at Board of Supervisor meetings: C

9) Taking credit for things he had little or nothing to do with: A

10) Inducing the San Bernardino Sun to print a specious story outlining his first year’s accomplishments that does not hold up under scrutiny by an educated 12 year old: A

EXTRA CREDIT:

1) Serving on the San Bernardino County Community College Board and approving an action that paid him for meetings he did not attend: F

2) Serving on the San Bernardino County Community College Board and approving Capital Appreciation Bonds: F minus

3) Serving on the San Bernardino International Airport Authority Board: D

Note: If he was on the Board when they voted to give a convicted felon $1,000,000 without reviewing documentation to support the obligation because the convicted felon’s attorney said it was “confidential:” Change the grade to an F minus.

Spaccia is on trial on 13 counts, including misappropriation of funds. If convicted, she faces up to 16 years in state prison.

Rizzo, who has been depicted as the mastermind of the brazen municipal corruption scandal that drove the modest Los Angeles suburb to the brink of bankruptcy, recently pleaded no contest to 69 counts of fraud, conflict of interest and other charges. In agreeing to testify against Spaccia and other former city officials, he will be sentenced to no more than 10 to 12 years in prison instead of a possible maximum of 70 years.

BTW, the rule of thumb is, and you all know this, if you take the process all the way to jury trial and you do not prevail, they throw the book at you. This is also the reason for mastermind Rizzo taking the plea agreement and avoiding the 70 years he was facing. Not that the 10 years he is going to do is a cakewalk, but he will parole young enough to still enjoy some freedom and not a guaranteed old age death sentence in prison. Sadly, Spaccia is left holding the bag because she procrastinated or had an attorney who unrealistically went around saying “we are anxious to get this case before a jury”.

Basically the same way Rizzo was telling Spaccia our actions may not have been moral, but they were not illegal, we hang together, we’ll be fine, at the same time he’s making a deal with the DA selling her out. Now here’s the funny part, I can see the underlings thinking to themselves that would never happen here, because we’re friends, we’re tight, and I’m gonna be rich, he promised, and he’s never screwed anybody over.

ACU#143………….You can label me a pissed off tax payer. As for case decisions, don’t you find it interesting that Larson used the case decisions he did and ignored the ones that the Supreme court used to render their decision? Don’t you think Larson knew of them? you can bet your bottom dollar he did, but they didn’t suit his purposes. Don’t you think the appellate court knew of the case law quoted by the state supreme court? It was a given that Mccarville would buy Larson’s argument and it was disappointing that the appellate court let themselves get played, but the supreme court didn’t budge. Now Larson is rushing to get things back into SBC his sphere of influence, funny don’t you think? what do I mean by Political winds? Think of the Supreme court ruling this way, they took the time to dig up relevant case law and not just buy into and use what Larson offered, which they could have done and thus ended this whole thing once and for all. In essence what they did is to rule contrary to the defense and then by remanding it back to the appellate the decision provided an unspoken direction they should take and also the opportunity to save face. Wind provides direction and this case now has a direction that has been provided by the state supreme court. All judges from here on out are going to have to tread very carefully.

No Red I am not Larson, I doubt he would spend the time trying to explain the case to you. I am a person who is offended by how this District Attorney promotes himself and uses minions like you to spread his gospel. Unlike you I have read most of the documents that have been made public in this case and yes through my educated review I have seen much and understand what the public will soon learn. You on the other hand seem to profess actual knowledge of the crimes based upon your aggressive stance. I would like to hear your actual knowledge versus the hearsay that you continue to repeat even though you are told the fact you are repeating is not true but you continue to repeat it in order to damage the images of the defendants. Why is that Red. I am not joking, I would like to know. Why do you spread false statements?

AntiCorruptionUnit on

Red pissed off taxpayer just about this case. Sorry can’t buy that one. You should also be pissed off that people are getting charge by your beloved DA for crimes they are FACTUALLY innocent of, with as much PASSION as you display here.

You should be pissed off that other public official who haven’t been charged for ANY crimes they committed, and others who get to finally plea to a misdemeanor, when they were originally charged with 525 Felony counts. Then after taking the plea their case was DISMISSED a short time later.

BE PISSED about everything going on around here. Your buddy Mikey is making it ALL happen with the assistance of the past and present Sheriff, it’s ALL documented.

As to Mr.Larsen, NO I DO NOT find ANYTHING he has done foolish. Your comment about the case decisions he used in his argument and filings before the court, is a STANDARD practice of all attorney’s. It is simply a case the lawyer believe supports their argument. The court agrees with them, or they don’t.

Trust me Red, I don’t have much time for to many lawyers. 270,000 or so in this state, far as I am concerned 260,000 are worthless.

I have actually heard MANY good things about Larsen, and it came from various other attorneys, only bad is from the Ramos peanut gallery.

I write most of that off as pure jealousy. If your suggesting Ramos is superior in experience, background etc, to Larsen, Ramos can’t carry the man’s water. But we will see soon, when they face off. Worth the price of admission.

Red you will not find the newspapers repeating many of the stories that were originally leaked by the DA’s office, they very rarely report accusations beyond the charges themselves anymore. You however are not only repeating many, you are asserting the factual basis as if you know the them to be true. I have and will take up untruths and damaging statements with those that spread false statements, right now that’s you. The case cannot go away until such time it can be ruled on by a judge who has the jurisdiction to do so. For the last two and a half years the prosecutors have filed motions which have prevented the case from advancing. The defendants cannot present any evidence or lodge motions which challenge the factual basis of the indictment until its back in Superior Court. It has been the prosecutors that have prevented the case from moving forward, but their delay tactics are about up and the case should advance to pretrial motions next couple of months. Issues with Ramos will eventually come out, whether in this next phase of the criminal case or the next case which will be a Civil action. My guess is Ramos will let this case get dismissed before he has to take the stand and answer questions regarding many many things.

Oh, and thank God that the DA had the gumption to see this case all the way through to the Supreme court and not just give up.

He has sanctioned or supported several prosecution that BLEW up in his face either at trial or in the 11th hour, and you would like the readers to believe he has NO WORRIES in this case??? LMAO!!!!!

Hell I have a motion SUSTAINED by a Federal Judge that suggest Ramos/McMahon covered up a SHOOTING involving Sheriff’s Deputies in Yucaipa, Ca. In fact I think that motion is posted on this very blog.

The DA’s race hasn’t even picked up speed yet, which could be another nightmare for Ramos as far as tales from the past.

I think Larsen is a multi task oriented person, he might be able to chew on more than one ass at a time.

I will also make a prediction with the assertions your carrying on about, your going to find yourself in court as a defendant if not a witness. Your comments beg for that.

I’d be real surprised if a Private Investigator doesn’t serve you with a subpoena before this is all over. People like you who challenge everyone about what they say, MUST have so much KNOWLEDGE about the case it begs for you to share with a jury.

You say you want to remain anonymous, then you should not be so vocal as to lead a person to believe you have a wealth of knowledge about this case.

Also, your twisting of the ruling to suggest that the Appellate Court judges were made to look like “fools” by Mr. Larson is very creative. I’m not sure they were made to look like “fools” by anybody, but if they were, it was the Supreme Court justices who did so, not Mr. Larson.

Kenny and others keep up the good work. Can’t wait to see all those new law suits at SBSD for 2014. Banner year I’m sure.

Boy the Mike “Nifong” Ramos lovers are in full swing…wait until they see what their butt boy, and his minions, did to the law and the Constitution….LOL..they must be in full, paid, desperation mode….LMFAO!

Anonymous #189 What is it exactly that Ramos has done to “the law and the Constitution”? I don’t believe you can name a single thing.

Yes Red that is true, it only took two try’s, but he got em. As to Rex attitude, etc, NO argument from me. I knew him when he first became a City Councilman in Rancho Cucamonga LONG AGO. NEVER have been a Rex fan.

Have you went to the State Bar website and actually read ALL the issues with Reiss??? WOW, that’s all I am going to say about that.

Red I’ll bash the PISS out of ANY politician, I don’t play that party over principle shit. I arrested more Republicans than Democrats. I arrested Paul Baine and Bob Dutton. Does that tell you anything?

I am will aware of the Red Hill crony BS, and LONG before you were.

Oh Red, before you suck up to Mills anymore, he played to all those Red Hill boys and kissed all that Republican butt as needed. I bet he even had lunch with Rex. So a word of caution on all that. Mills is not a leader, he is a FOLLOWER.

Red Anon doesn’t get it. Mike Ramos IS the political corruption in this County. He has been for the last decade. I hear that Brett Granlund is telling people that if they support Mike Morrell over his unqualified wife for State Senate that Ramos will be coming after them!

That’s why we need to elect Paul Schrader for sheriff. Hate Paul or love him. He will stop that good old boy system. James Mills unless you can tell us all the good positive stuff Mcfuck has done, save your bullshit and get off your knees you weak sister.

Mike Ramos reminds me of the poker player who sat down at the table in a saloon, pulled out a large knife with a shiny blade, laid it on the table in front of him, and said: “This is to discourage cheating.”

Then, every time he dealt, he read the reflection of the cards on the knife blade.

Anonymous #217 The deck has been changed, the marked cards are gone, good luck. And as long as your threatening monetary retaliation, don’t forget the other $200,000,000.00 for the balance of he cost of that drainage ditch. Your desperation is heartwarming.

Repairman give us your EXPERT political analogy of the two SENIOR wiz kids on the BOS, Ovitt and Gonzales. Maybe a CERTIFIED bean counter can look at the books and tag those two with giving the NOD to over a half billion or so in lawsuit settlements, bad public/personal projects during their tours of duty.

We can maybe use Josie’s vast experience from the airport scandal, oops, we might have to include James Ramos is some of that.

The time has come for both sides to quit talking, and start proving what they said about this case. Let’s see who is more eager to do just that.

Let’s get it done, or started, and WELL before June 2014. That could be a plus or minus for Mike Ramos and crew.

I’ll call his bluff and raise him his NEXT TERM.

Now let’s get busy folks so everyone can at least see for OURSELVES where the evidence is to prove or disapprove this case.

Why do you think depositions and other court documents were put up on these blogs especially regarding testimony of CERTAIN people on other matters?

I bet Rod Hoops wishes he NEVER took that woman who killed Detective Duane Parkinson to lunch, or EVEN talked to her on the phone.

Some of you clowns called BS on everything related to that incident. OOPS, someone met your challenge. And most of you are STILL hiding.

Let’s go Mikey.
